[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suku_patel_22:
I have just ordered my RaspberryPi, and I plan on using it for below.

1. Connect my powered 2TB external HDD to it and make a NAS

2. Use it as a torrent client

3. Play movies on the HDD using XBMC

4. Run lightppd to share my files on the internet.

Coming to my questions

1. Would it be possible to install the distro on a separate partition one the HDD? I plan to format the HDD using ext4.

2. Will the little machine be able to handle the load of all 4 tasks?

3. Should I use NFS over SMB? I plan to access the files of the share on Linux, Windows and Android.

Please let me know your thoughts on this.

[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZachOlauson:
1: I would use a bootloader like BerryBoot to install the distro on the hard drive, I think its possible, Ive only installed on a flash drive and SD Card, but I dont see why it wouldnt work.

2. It might be able to handle it but cant say for sure. On mine I am using XBMC and streaming movies from my desktop and I am using nearly 400mb of RAM but I think the CPU load is okay.

3. Not sure on this one, I use SMB but my laptop is broken so I dont have linux running on any of my machines, but Windows and Android works just fine, and I actually use my Nexus 7 as a remote for XBMC.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Endoroid:
SMB is compatible with linux and Windows natively, however if you intend to stream HD video at all NFS would be better. My NAS uses both, NFS to stream to my pi running xbmc, and samba for windows machines/android devices. I also running a upnp server for remote streaming to my phone.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratchetnclank:
Samba has slow speeds on the pi typically 7-8Mbps compared to the usual 25-40 i get from my drive.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Endoroid:
I found samba had lag on HD vids. I still use samba on my windows and android devices, buti never stream HD to them
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stephj:
The Pi's 'ROM/BIOS' boot code attempts to bootstrap from the SD. If there is nothing where it expects it to be it won't start.

You would need some code to transfer startup to the external hard disk.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imanol Barba:
AFAIK, the raspberry pi can boot partitions from an external USB drive, what it actually boots is the GPU executable which loads a kernel, then it can bootstrap an USB HDD.

For the SMB or NFS matter, NFS usually provides higher throughput than SMB, and Windows can mount NFS based hosts, I'd go for that if you plan to see some performance.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] io53:
As said, NFS have smaller overhead than SMB. So use that if you can.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sioxz:
i have a Samba server and i can Stream Full HD whit no problems (maybe a littel slow in the Begining nothing more) 1TB 2.0USB HDD NTFS
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] instantnoodle:
So overall NFS is better than Samba?
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suku_patel_22:
Yes, but samba is easier to setup across platforms

[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antivirtel:
I have just a 256 MB model, and I'll use it for torrent+file share+XBMC. Which client for torrenting will you use otherwise? (transmission-daemon or rTorrent?)
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suku_patel_22:
Not sure, whichever gives me ability to push torrents from my pc.

My pi arrives next week.

Tapatalked from Desire S running Andromadus
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FBis251:
You should give transmission-daemon and transmission gui (transgui) a try. You can push files via the Internet if you have your port forwarding set up correctly.

I have a slightly different setup that has Apache providing ssl for transmission-daemon

EDIT

You can also set it up with transdroid on Android. I believe transdroid also works with r Torrent.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redvelociraptor:
NFS is faster than SMB. If you are reasonably Linux-savvy, you should have no issues setting it up. I serve NFS to my Win 7 torrent box from OpenIndiana. Setting up Win7 as an NFS client is a bit more complicated.

=RV=
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oribunokiyuusou:
I hope you're talking about megabits per second. You can get 7~8 Megabytes per second with SAMBA and you can get the full 12 megabytes (100megabits) per second with NFS, but never more than that.

In most cases, samba is enough, but I've seen two or three videos with imense video and sound quality that SAMBA simply can't keep up. NFS saves the day. The 100 megabit ethernet can be a real bottleneck though.

Setting up the NFS is really quite a bit of trouble for a first-timer. Windows doesn't play well you don't have the no_root_squash option on the server. After that though, all l you need is a bat script with "mount <NFS_SERVER_IP>://<SHARE>/<FOLDER> <DRIVE>:". Don't forget to enable NFS client first.

Either that or use nekodrive and dokan.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hazysight:
yeah same here samba runs very smooth for my 3D/1080p movie streams.

I recommend changing up the settings(disable firewall etc) increase buffer size and overclock.
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sOuLjA4eVeR:
i prefer nfs for hd movies, there is also a windows nfs client :laugh:
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rixbeck68:
As I read I must give a try for NFS. :)
[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nypan sr:
There were bechmarktests done by a user in the OpenELEC forum.

As you can see the difference isn't that great:

FTP was faster than SMB by 1.57%

NFS was faster than FTP by 5.65%

And finally NFS was faster than SMB by 7.22%

Wipe factory reset

Then wipe system

Than try to install.

This is the only way I could get iida sense beta to install without a failed tag

do you have the zip that is 670mb
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kylecore:
There is button remap already there.

Go to Setting -> Display / Buttons and select what you would like the multi tasking button to do.

I have mine set to be the menu key and long press for recent apps.

OF course home is home with google now for long press.

nothing for back.

Mine failed the first few times but its because i kept wiping things out of habit.

Might be TWRP, i'm on the most recent one : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1677447

But again mine failed if i wiped anything so i literally just reflashed my last ROM ( in this case PAC 19.9 ) and let it load up.

Once it fully loaded i rebooted and flashed this rom (without rosie) without wiping a thing worked like a charm.

Also didn't wipe dalvik before or after just flashed and loaded. Give that a shot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] savylop:
thanks after update the TWRP all worked ok, I had to dirty install the sense one over the iida, thanks

Is anyone having extreme lag when you get a message in the lockscreen? Also the notification won't go away.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 'busa:
Yes, I've noticed that sometimes the SMS message will not clear. Also, clicking on external links from within apps doesn't work. Facebook crashes and XDA just doesn't respond.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xaey:
My xda works just fine. But I'm experiencing everything else you said including external links not doing anything within any app.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tae_254:
I second this
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kylecore:
I tried a couple different Kernels to mix it up, ultimately made it run slower then before.

Did some testing compared to other roms and sadly i was getting quadrant scores of 3500ish and antutu of 6000ish before chaning kernels.

Comparing this to PAC 19.9 6000ish quadrant and 11000ish antutu explained why performance was iffy.

Nice side note, kernel tuner did allow me to overclock the gpu with stock kernel but it didn't help much

Some small quirks I noticed :

1. Unable to download certain files via any browser - ex. backed up apks from dropbox .

2. The video recording crashed every time.

3. Not being able to turn the battery saver notification off in the notification drawer

3,5. Not being able to enable quick toggles.

4. Some widgets forced to be on second home screen instead of main - ex. Aix Weather/apollo/gmusic

5. Calendar widget issues.

6. All the au bloatware (used root uninstaller to clean most of it out quickly and easily though)

7. Limited button remapping (no home/back remapping or setting volume buttons to act as next/back buttons when screen off/locked)

8. Smoothness of scrolling could be fixed up, was not resolved by other kernels

9. Weird flicker of tiles regardless of which iida theme i chose.

10. Clicking a youtube video in browser didn't prompt me to open with youtube app just kept opening tabs / other in app hyperlinks broken.

All in all valiant effort! Thanks for putting it together its nice seeing something different.

Keeping a hawk eye on thread for the next update :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Newt:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Zarboz:
that is part of the launcher they "wiggle" or "shake"
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arrow44:
So did anyone find a fix for video recording?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G4 Man2:
No, he means actual flickering. I'm also experiencing it, it happens after the "wiggle" animation is over and happens for about 5 seconds after every time you touch the launcher.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] =JKT=:
I see it too. Are we sure it's a bug? To me it looks like it's may very well be part of the effect.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G4 Man2:
You could be right but i took a look at the preview video on the thread suggesting a port of this and i didnt see the flickering
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Zarboz:
im telling you thats how its sposed to work

:P watch the youtube video again :P
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G4 Man2:
Watched the video again, didn't see it, watched another video that went over the software in a foreign language http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qmn6FI7BUEs&feature=youtube_gdata_player didn't see it, watched a video of it on the at&t one xl (he turns on animations and you can see around 2:40) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OFrNNOJL-0&feature=youtube_gdata_player and saw it (tho my flickering lasts ALOT longer and seems to be flickering way faster) . I feel like I'm going insane (or blind)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] K4get:
my music player works fine. and it seems like you have a bad install. my apps work good also.

i am not going make a YouTube video.. trust me mine works fine. the calendar is the only real. problem.

an app like rebooter only reboots, it wont reboot recovery, or bootloader. this is the only thing that is not working for me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wyd4:
Can't wait to see this evolve. Really interesting rom
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G4 Man2:
Re-flashed and tried a dirty flash, still flickering, just to make sure everyone is on the same page as me, I'm not talking about how the tiles wiggle a little while after it stops moving, I'm experiencing rapid flickering on tiles, kind of like a black overlay that shows up for milliseconds and switches between apps but stops after 5 seconds
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] K4get:
Yes i understand your statement. i have no flicker or light between tiles or apps. i seen your video.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xaey:
I've been getting the same flickering so your not alone.. K4get are your animations turned off by any chance in your iida settings?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] K4get:
they are on. the tiles wiggle. however i do not get a flickering effect at all.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] =JKT=:
I've used the rom for about 3 days, and I have to say that I think it's worth pursuing..if just to squish a couple bugs. Although besides video recording, I didn't notice anything else in day to day use.

Now that I think of it, I don't think anyone called me since I've been on it. only outgoing calls.

Regardless, thanks again for the work. I really like it!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] K4get:
One more thing try battery save mode ,it may help your problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kylecore:
The wiggling i get, its part of the ui and animations and its cool.

The flickering happens after, its almost like its trying to re-render the theme after the wiggling stops.

I changed my theme to one of the black ones and it happened a lot Some of the other colors still do it but not as much.

Might want to check what happens in the animations per theme after the "Wiggle" effect see if it does a re-render on the tiles.

or try changing your theme in iida settings to see what changes and if you get the ficker effect after.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ereneren564:
Newt thanks for the effort! Can you do a flashable zip for infobar a02 so I can install on my EndavorU?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tritran18518:
Those flickering on widget is related to changing the widget size, I believe. BTW, the second video was made by me ^^
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kylecore:
Its been a few days sine i ran the rom but i don't think its related to the widget size.

Happens on 1x1 widgets.

I think its a theme refresh issue.

Happens most when unlocking phone or reverting back to the homescreen from an app.

If you leave it on the homecreen it does it once, scroll up and down as much as you want it won't do it again until you do one of the above.

I'm new to the hox I'm a sense fan I like the look of this Rom,can I flash this I did the all on one tool kit and soff I'm on ICS sense can I dl this and just flash in recovery or should Ive flashed the update before I did the all in one toolkit,I just don't want to brick my phone!!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] =JKT=:
As long as we are talking the dual core hox, you should be good to go. If you have hboot 1.14 or above, your kernel might take a while to flash, but it should work.

---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

Also, all custom roms here should be pre-rooted, so don't worry about the root process any more. Just back up your rooted stock Rom in recovery because you never know a) if the new Rom will work and b) if you'll need/want to return to stock later.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jwhood:
I don't have to flash kernel separate now right,came from the mt4g this beast is entirely different!!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kylecore:
The kernel is in the zip you will flash, what h's saying is it might take time to flash depending on your hboot.

Also don't wipe before flashing this rom, just flash.

General recommendation is to use TWRP instead of CWM for your recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jwhood:
